Why do I need it?

Meeting supplier’s requirements

Helps you maintain good relationships with your suppliers. Many suppliers request an EDI solution and may impose penalties for non-compliance.

Overall performance

Your employees no longer need to perform routine retyping of data or juggle between multiple supplier applications. As a result, they have time to make strategic decisions, e.g. pertaining to range increase and sales.

How it works

FAQ

How can I calculate the benefits of this solution?

Compare the data before and after the implementation of the solution:

changes in order processing time
accuracy of order execution, e.g. the number of errors
change in overall efficiency indicator

Employees should also be asked to evaluate the solution. Get feedback on their experience with the new system and identify areas for future optimisation.

Do I need this solution if my supplier uses a webshop to receive orders?

The solution is perfect for you, as it will allow you to significantly save time by eliminating the need to manually enter order data on the supplier’s website. You will be able to place orders directly from your accounting system and to receive order confirmations/approvals in your accounting system. You will no longer need to juggle between different applications and to transfer data.

How is the confidentiality of my data ensured?

Due to the use of secure transmission channels and encryption, transmitting documents via EDI is significantly more secure than sending documents via email. The confidentiality of the client data is ensured by an NDA agreement.

When can I start using this solution?

The time it takes to connect a supplier depends on the availability of the necessary data to be provided by your partner. Once all data is available, integration will be completed within two weeks. Two more weeks will be required for testing and debugging.

How much does the solution cost?

The cost of the service consists of two parts: a one-time fee for integration and project management; a monthly fee for each document sent and received.
